"The Canyon Spectral:ON is finally back, with a new 800-Wh integrated battery, geared towards mountain bikers looking to do a bit of everything well rather than just being a descent monster."
"In terms of specifications, it's not a million miles away from the $15,000 Specialized S-Works Levo 4, which is remarkable given the $10,000 difference."
"Canyon is using Shimano's EP801 5.7-pound mid-drive e-MTB drive unit motor here, which delivers 85 Nm of torque and 600 watts of peak power."
Canyon's Spectral:ON electric mountain bike features a full-carbon build and an 800-Wh battery, delivering impressive range and performance for under $4,500. Weighing 54.5 pounds, it offers 85 Nm of torque and is designed for versatile trail riding. Despite past issues with battery recalls, the bike's specifications are competitive with higher-priced models, making it an attractive option for mountain bikers. However, it may be heavy and challenging to maneuver on technical terrain, and the direct sales model may not appeal to everyone.
